{HMW} 8 Signs You're Embracing Intuitive Eating
|
Dear Reader Hello, beautiful souls! Imagine a world where your food choices are guided by excitement and trust rather than guilt and second-guessing. Intuitive eating is all about reconnecting with your body’s natural signals and making peace with food. Here are eight signs that you’re on the right path: Excitement over Apprehension: You feel excited about what you choose to eat, not apprehensive or judgmental. Trust and Calm: You feel trusting and calm about your food decisions. Confidence in Stopping: You trust that you’ll stop eating when you’re full or it’s the right time, with little overthinking or negotiating. Hunger Cues: You mostly eat based on hunger, not the clock or other external measures. Energized and Satisfied: You feel energized and physically satisfied after eating. Body-Led Decisions: When it comes to eating, you let your body lead the way instead of your mind. Releasing Old Rules: You consciously release old food rules and drop into the present moment to make food decisions. Understanding Hunger: You know the difference between emotional and physical hunger and shame yourself for neither. By embracing these intuitive eating principles, you can develop a healthier and more joyful relationship with food. Trust your body and enjoy the journey!

I heard about this single-origin and small farmer spice shop through my favorite food blogger, Nisha Vora. I can't wait to try some of these truly unique dried spices. Also, I really really want every single American to vote this year, ok? Ingredient Spotlight: Brie Cheese I remember the first time I ever tried brie cheese. It was like an otherworldly experience. The way it smeared and stretched on the cracker, the ooey gooey goodness, the tangy flavor that pairs so well with sweet and savory...I was hooked. Its been the one food that I miss as a vegan. However, I did find one product that is darn close! Brie cheese, often called the "Queen of Cheeses," is not only a historical delicacy but also has nutritional benefits as well! Rich in protein, calcium, vitamin B12, and probiotics, it supports muscle health, bone strength, nerve function, and digestion. For a yummy treat, try baked brie with honey and nuts. Simply drizzle honey and sprinkle chopped nuts over a wheel of brie, bake until gooey, and serve warm with crackers or baguette slices. Enjoy the creamy, sweet, and crunchy harmony of this elegant appetizer. Announcements & Upcoming: One last reminder to grab Dr Tayo's Dynamic Woman's AM & PM Menopause Power Pack now.

Dear Reader We all crave motivation—the surge of excitement that pushes us to take action. But for many, it’s fleeting, unreliable, and often vanishes as quickly as it arrives. We chase it, only to find it slipping away, showing up sporadically when we’re desperate or at rock bottom. But there’s a better way: momentum. Momentum is that powerful force that keeps you moving once you’ve taken the first step. Unlike motivation, it doesn’t rely on willpower or sheer force. It’s like a boat gliding...

Dear Reader Stress sucks, right? Not, necessarily all the time. In fact, there is a whole field of research on Hormetic stressors and how seeking them out can foster resiliency. Hormetic stressors work by challenging the body in small, manageable ways, forcing it to adapt and become stronger. When exposed to these mild stressors, the body activates survival pathways that repair and strengthen cells, improve metabolic processes, and build up resilience to more significant challenges. This is...
